Profile Summary
Kids Matters OT is a large private paediatric occupational therapy practice in Brisbane staffed by experienced therapists who use a combination of cognitive (thinking), motor, emotional, sensory integration based techniques and DIR/ Floortime to give effective outcomes for autistic children, children with aspergers syndrome (ASD), Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD), sensory defensiveness, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD/ ADD), dyslexia and learning difficulties and developmental delays. We have clinics at Yeerongpilly, Greenslopes and Aspley but serve families from all areas of Brisbane as well as providing Telehealth services to rural and remote areas across Queensland.
The practice is owned and operated by Vivienne Williams (AccOT) and her husband Peter Williams. Vivienne Williams began in private practice in May 2003 and expanded to a company employing other occupational therapists by January 2007. From the beginning, Vivienne Williams and Kids Matters Occupational Therapists did much advanced training in sensory integration focussed on improving sensory integration issues. In 2008, Kids Matters occupational therapists trained in the DIR/ Floortime model and have since combined both models for effective outcomes.
